Nowadays, rogaining in Spain is a challenging sport with more than 20 competitions every season. After two European Rogaining Championship (2013, 2016) we are very proud to organize the next WRC in 2019. We are pleased to invite rogaining family to come to La Molina, located in Catalunya Pyrenees on July 27th and 28th 2019. Terrain description The competition area is close to the Cadí-Moixeró National Park and it is a beautiful mixed of clean forest and high mountains. Terrain is from moderate hilly to mountainous. The highest peak is La Tossa 2536m and the lowest area is around 1300m, around Alp village. This mountainous environment provides a physically challenging terrain where minimized climbs and drops will be an important factor. Therefore, navigational capabilities and route planning skills acquire a vital importance and have been proven as an essential factor for the successful rogainer. However is not a big area (less than 150 qm2) the difference in altitude will be a relevant factor.
